Release: Smarter Logs — Sort Memory, CSV/JSON Export & a Fuller Audit Trail
What's new: the Application logs page in Sprint Automation for Jira Cloud is now built for audit, export, and review — your sort order is remembered, every log table exports to CSV or JSON, and sprint-lifecycle events are recorded in the audit trail. No configuration required; the options appear automatically.
Your log sort order is now remembered
The column and direction you sort each log table by is saved in your browser and restored automatically next time you open the page. Each table remembers its own setting — set it once and it stays the way you like it.
Export your logs to CSV or JSON
Every log table — Configuration audit, Configuration history, and Automation logs — now has Export CSV and Export JSON buttons. Each export contains exactly the rows shown, so you can analyze automation activity in a spreadsheet, share extracts with your team, and keep records for compliance and audit.
A fuller sprint-lifecycle audit trail
Sprint lifecycle events — started, closed, created, updated, and deleted — are now recorded in the Automation logs table. Previously these lived only in internal server logs. Administrators, and especially enterprise teams with audit requirements, now get a clear, visible history of every sprint lifecycle change the app observed.
How this compares to native Jira
Capability | Native Jira | Sprint Automation for Jira |
|---|---|---|
Start & close sprints | Manual, one board at a time | Automatic, on schedule, across many boards |
Roll over unfinished work | Manual during close | Automatic — next sprint, a new sprint, or backlog |
Create the next sprint | Manual | Auto-created and auto-numbered |
Audit trail of sprint automation | None for automated start / close / rollover | Every event recorded: started, closed, created, updated, deleted |
Export activity | Not available | Export any log table to CSV or JSON |
Remembered log preferences | — | Sort order saved per table |
These improvements are available to all Sprint Automation for Jira Cloud users today.
